Abstract

An electrical consumer system includes an electrical consumer with a first mating interface and a first plurality of electrical contacts, and a removable battery pack including a second mating interface and a second plurality of electrical contacts, the second mating interface configured to removably mate with the first mating interface such that the second plurality of contacts contact the first plurality of contacts. At least one of the first and second mating interfaces includes a temperature sensor configured to detect at least one of a temperature of the at least one of the first and second mating interfaces, and a temperature of the first or second electrical contacts of the at least one of the first and second mating interfaces.
